This topic discusses the following:
This Help file, which is embedded in the VNA, is the Users Guide and Programming Manual for the VNA. The help file is automatically updated on the VNA when firmware is updated. Only the VNA Installation and Quick Start Guide is shipped with new VNA instruments.
Hardcopy manuals are no longer available for purchase with the VNA.
All VNA documentation, including the latest online Web Help version of this Help file, and a printable .PDF version of the Help file, are available at http://www.keysight.com/find/na.
The Help system can be launched in three ways:
From the front panel Help button.
From the Help drop-down menu
From Dialog Box Help
TIP: To Search any topic for a keyword, press Ctrl and F.
Perform a Google search of the online version of VNA Help.
The following rules apply for using full-text search:
Searches are not case-sensitive.
You can search for any combination of letters (a-z) and numbers (0-9).
Punctuation marks (period, colon, semicolon, comma, and hyphen) are ignored during a search.
You can group the words of your search using double quotes or parentheses. Examples: "response calibration" or (response calibration). This requirement makes it impossible to search for quotation marks.
Use Wildcard expressions:
To search for one undefined character use a question mark (?). For example, searching for cal? will find calc and calf.
To search for more than one undefined character use an asterisk (*). Searching for Cal* will find calibration and calculate.
Use Boolean operators to define a relationship between two or more search words.

For E5080A, the Language button is activated.
